This stunning boy’s story began at the Miami-Dade shelter, where he was born. Sadly, almost exactly a year later, he found himself back there as a “stray”, abandoned and unclaimed. His previous owner clearly didn’t deserve him. Someone spent money to crop his ears, but not to train or guide him, and when he became a typical young, energetic Dogo Argentino, they gave up on him.
Today, Kingston is thriving in foster care with one of our Directors, and he’s made incredible progress in a short time. He’s an affectionate, social boy who loves everyone he meets; no one is a stranger to him. He’s eager to please, highly treat-motivated, and very intuitive.
Kingston is house-trained, crate-trained, and walks nicely on a leash. He already knows some basic obedience and continues to improve every day. He’s like a big, goofy puppy, playful and full of life, but he’s learning to settle and relax when it’s time to chill out.
His ideal home is an active household that can provide structure, consistency, and daily engagement. He thrives on routine and looks to his person for direction, so his adopter should be confident, patient, and committed to continuing his training.
Kingston is a total Velcro dog , he’ll follow you from room to room and loves being close to his people. He travels well in the car, enjoys adventures, and gets along with other dogs.
Because he’s still young and working on manners (he can be a little bit mouthy), we’re recommending a home without small children, so he can stay focused and continue building his best self. With the right guidance and love, Kingston will grow into the loyal, devoted companion he was always meant to be.
